1. Pretty in Peplum

The Duchess of Cambridge looked exceptionally polished to kick off the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Tour. Her teal L.K. Bennett number kept her classic and chic, but won her extra fashion points with its peplum silhouette.

Steal Kate's pretty look in a blue peplum strapless dress with a belt and a pair of black pumps. Add a black envelope clutch and a cute (optional) fascinator to complete your royal look!

2. Pink Pleats, Please

Kate went for a girly look while attending the Queen's garden party at Buckingham Palace. This time, she opted for a pink pleated dress by Emilia Wickstead, paired with blush-colored accessories and a white hat.

For a soft and pretty look, wear a pleated shift dress in pink with a pair of neutral pumps. Next, add a lace box clutch similar to Kate's. If you're a little more adventurous, try a veiled, cream-colored fascinator, which is sure to make a statement!

3. State of Lace

On the final day of celebrations, for a service at St. Paul's cathedral and subsequent carriage ride and reception, Kate wore a blush pink lace dress by Alexander McQueen, one of her all-time favorite design houses. She accessorized with simple nude pumps and, of course, a matching fascinator.

To get Kate's look, start with a cream-colored lace dress and a pair of gold metallic ballet flats. To accessorize, wear dainty pearl earrings, a bow-accented bag, and a lovely little fascinator in a matching shade.

4. Royal in Red

Again in Alexander McQueen, Kate stepped out and made a statement in a gorgeous red pleated dress for the River Thames Jubilee Pageant. The outfit maintained her classic look, while the bold color made it pop.

Stand out from the crowd in this outfit inspired by Kate's pageant attire! Wear a bold red pleated dress with a pair of patent neutral-tone pumps. Grab a box clutch and a fun fascinator to add a bit of flair to your look. Finally, Kate wore a special pin to commemorate the Jubilee, so pin a pretty brooch to the dress to finish the look!
